Dr Greg Rouse

Greg Rouse was the recipient of an ARC Postdoctoral Research fellowship and was in Protsville from 1994 - 2001. He has previously worked at the National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution (USA). Greg is interested in the evolution of reproduction in marine metazoa (particularly polychaetes), methods for phylogenetic reconstruction, and ending the use of the Linnean system of nomenclature. He now has a position in Adelaide.
